GetWindowsSpecialDir can be used to to get the path of special folders on the Windows system. The locations are identified using one of the CSIDL_* constants. If the ID of a location is or-ed with the CSIDL_FLAG_CREATE constant, then the directory will be created if it didn't exist yet (and the user has sufficient rights to do so).
On error, an empty string is returned.
